Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Ophthalmology (Eye Surgery)6
Cataract SurgeryThe clouded natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with a clear artificial one. It is one of the most common outpatient procedures performed in the country, usually takes under 30 minutes per eye, and is done under light sedation with numbing drops rather than general anesthesia.LASIK / Refractive SurgeryA laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, reducing dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure itself takes minutes per eye. Vision is often noticeably better within a day, though it can take several weeks to fully stabilize.Glaucoma SurgeryCreates a new drainage path for fluid inside the eye to lower internal pressure. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve silently, so the goal is preventing further vision loss rather than restoring vision already lost. Several minimally invasive options are now performed in outpatient settings.Retinal SurgeryRepairs the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, most often for a detached or torn retina, or for bleeding related to diabetes. Timing matters — a detaching retina is treated urgently because delay increases the risk of permanent vision loss.Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)Removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. When drooping upper lids block part of the visual field, the procedure is functional rather than cosmetic and is often covered by insurance if visual field testing documents the obstruction.Corneal TransplantReplaces damaged or clouded corneal tissue with donor tissue. Modern techniques often replace only the affected layer rather than the full thickness, which shortens recovery. Vision improves gradually over months, and stitches may stay in place for a year or longer.

This place STACKS appointments and can’t keep up. There is only one doctor that does cataract surgery and the waiting room is filled with people. The first time we came, they called my husband back 45 minutes late. Today it is an hour and 20 minutes past our appointment time and we are still waiting. There are so many people here they had to bring out more chairs! Maybe try not being so greedy and schedule appointments accordingly! Oh and this place also has you drive almost 30 minutes to another location after the surgery to have your eye checked! That’s just crazy! Unless you have an entire day to waste, I recommend you find another place.

My wife had cataract surgery here. Wife was very stressed. Needless to say they are the experts here. Her outcome was good. Before you arrive you will have seen the doctor in the office. You should have your prescriptions filled before you arrive. You will need them right after the surgery. They also go over the cost, insurance, and legal before surgery. The day of surgery you don’t have to do anymore of this. Arrival-They keep the building very cool and they tell you upfront to bring a jacket. The patient must bring a legal companion to drive them home. When the patient is taken back to the area, you do not have to change out of your clothes. They put a gown over your clothes and a head covering. You are on a rolling bed with clean linen. They do the cataract procedure on 1 eye at the time and if the second is done it will be in 1 to 3 weeks. The actual procedure seems to be 5-15 minutes. They use “twilight anesthesia” so you will be dismissed quickly. Door to Door time is 2 hours. Then you are on the way home. Follow up with the doctor is the next day.
